After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

Upon hearing that Yue Fei was coming, Liu Bowen and Yu Qian were greatly shocked.

After hearing about Yue Fei's deeds, Guan Yu and the others all showed admiration.

There is an old saying that a general in the field may disobey the emperor's orders. If the emperor's power is too forceful, there are many generals who will rebel. But a general like Yue Fei, who had fierce soldiers under his command, still went back to obediently accept his death. He can only be described as unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness.

Ma Chao clicked his tongue and said, "It's a pity he didn't kill Qin Hui before he died, otherwise it would have been good to take him down with him."

“If I did that, I wouldn’t be Marshal Yue.”

Yu Qian is the most qualified to speak on this matter. His experience is not exactly the same as Yue Fei's, but rather identical.

Zhu Qizhen's defeat at Tumu Fortress resulted in the near annihilation of the Ming Dynasty's elite forces. Then, as a civil official, he personally took up arms and, against all odds, insisted on defending the capital. In the end, he and Zhu Qiyu won the Battle of Beijing, extending the Ming Dynasty's life by two hundred years. However, after the usurper seized power, he was killed.

That year, heavy snow fell, and he wrote "Ode to Limestone," just as Yue Fei left behind the timeless "Man Jiang Hong" before his death.

As they were speaking, a large army arrived from afar. Their military might was overwhelming, and every soldier exuded an astonishing aura of killing intent. This was Yue Fei's army.

Looking at the commander-in-chief, who was in his early thirties and wore golden armor and a red robe, he exuded an extremely heroic and composed aura, inspiring awe. Beside him, the young general riding a white horse was also quite extraordinary in appearance. He was none other than Yang Zaixing, the peerless warrior who went down in history and dared to charge into battle alone.

Historically, there have only been a handful of people who charged into battle alone, such as Xiang Yu and An Jingsi, Chang Yuchun and Yang Zaixing, or Lü Bu, etc.

Of course, Dian Hanhan was no less impressive. He once wielded his double halberds to protect Cao Cao, fighting his way in and out of the city gate seven times, proving himself invincible in every battle.

Chen Futu stood in front of the civil and military officials, quietly looking at Yue Fei, his heart filled with heroic spirit.

The people on both sides of the street were also watching. They didn't know who these two generals were, but they knew that they must be formidable people to be personally greeted by the king and so many civil and military officials.

"My hair stands on end in anger, I lean on the railing as the rain subsides. I look up to the sky and roar, my heart filled with fierce passion. Thirty years of fame and glory are but dust and dirt, eight thousand miles of road are but clouds and moon. Do not idly let your youthful head turn white, only to be filled with empty sorrow."

Chen Futu began reciting "Man Jiang Hong," and the street fell silent. Everyone looked over in surprise, while Yue Fei smiled self-deprecatingly, dismounted, and walked over.

Chen Futu continued: "I will drive my chariot and shatter the Helan Mountains. With lofty ambition, I will feast on the flesh of the barbarians when hungry, and drink their blood when thirsty. I will start anew, reclaim our lost lands, and return to the imperial palace."

Yue Fei shook his head and greeted Yang Zaixing.

"This humble general greets Your Majesty."

"Yang Zaixing greets Your Majesty!"

"You two have come from afar, thank you for your hard work."

Chen Futu smiled and took Yue Fei's hand, asking, "Let's start anew and rebuild our lost land. Now is the time to start over. Marshal Yue, would you like to join me in appreciating the beauty of this world?"

"This humble general swears to follow Your Majesty to the death!"

Yue Fei's eyes shone with a light. He saw a different kind of temperament in this young king—a domineering aura that could swallow mountains and rivers and look down upon the world, a quality that Zhao Gou completely lacked.

"With General Yue, I am like a tiger with wings."

In fact, Chen Futu really wanted to ask him how the new monarch compared to Wanyan Jiu Mei, but he felt it was somewhat offensive, so he didn't ask.

As for Yang Zaixing, Chen Futu said with a smile: "I have heard that the general is brave and unparalleled in the world. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed extraordinary."

"Your Majesty flatters me. It is indeed the generals who are quite remarkable. I have yet to learn from them."

Yang Zaixing was a madman, or to put it simply, a berserker. His intuition was extremely sharp, and he could clearly sense how strong the group of generals brought by Chen Futu were, especially the red-faced bearded man, whose eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Chen Futu waved his hand, and the generals stepped forward to greet him one by one.

Yue Fei looked at Guan Yu, Huo Qubing, Ma Chao, and the others in shock, and asked in a low voice, "With such a force, why doesn't Your Majesty overthrow the Great Qian?"

Yang Zaixing was also stunned. Then he stared at the fierce generals with some excitement, looking eager to make a move.

Chen Futu also lowered his voice and said, "I also want to fight, but now is not the time. The northern frontier is barren and far from having the resources to support us in sweeping away the Great Qian in one fell swoop. In another year or two, the logistical support will be sufficient, ensuring that the general has a place to use his skills."

Then, Chen Futu introduced his civil officials, such as Liu Bowen, Zhuge Liang, Yu Qian, Di Renjie, and Zhang Liang, who was not present.

Yue Fei was completely numb. Wasn't this lineup a bit too outrageous? If the logistics had been better, even a dog could have won!

Chen Futu grinned, showing no hurry to crush the Great Qian Dynasty.

After all, there are still civil and military officials who haven't been recruited yet, such as the God of Slaughter Bai Qi, the Hegemon Xiang Yu, the God of War Han Xin, Xue Rengui who pacified Tianshan with three arrows, and Chang Shiwan, etc.

Throughout the vast river of five thousand years of history, there have been countless heroes, and Chen Futu wanted them all.

Just like collecting cards while eating instant noodles, when we attack Daqian in the future, we'll have an all-star lineup coming out from all directions, advancing side by side. That's when we can truly sweep the world in one fell swoop.

Chen Futu and his party arrived at the training ground.

Before he could speak, Yang Zaixing stepped forward with his spear. He looked around at the many fierce generals, excitedly clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Fellow comrades, I am Yang Zaixing, and I greet you."

Ma Chao raised an eyebrow and said, "Kid, you want to fight?"

"The name of the Divine General is renowned far and wide; I would like to learn a thing or two from him."

"Then as you wish."

Ma Chao was also a battle maniac; he grabbed his spear and went into battle.

This battle was a clash of equals, with the two fighting fiercely and evenly matched. However, it was clear to anyone with a discerning eye that Yang Zaixing was still somewhat weaker than Ma Chao. His strength couldn't keep up in the later stages, which is why he died of exhaustion at Xiaoshang Bridge.

Ma Chao did not defeat him; they were evenly matched.

Dian Wei then fought Yang Zaixing with his double halberds. This was a foot battle, and Yang Zaixing was no match for Dian Wei after dismounting, being suppressed by him almost the entire time.

"No more fighting!"

Yang Zaixing was already exhausted, and being pressed and rubbed by Dian Wei was becoming unbearable.

Ma Chao said unhappily, "Dian Wei, what do you mean? Is it because you think Ma Chao is inferior to you that you greet your comrade like this?"

Dian Wei replied in a gruff voice, "If you're not convinced, then fight me. I've wanted to beat you up for a long time."

"How could I, Ma Mengqi, be afraid of a blockhead like you!"

This was truly a clash of titans, with Ma Chao riding his Jade Lion mount while Dian Wei continued to fight on foot.

The two were of similar cultivation levels and their strength was not inferior to each other. They exchanged two hundred blows in one go. Chen Futu stopped them with a dark face, saying, "If you have strength but nowhere to use it, then go and till the land. It just so happens that the Northern Frontier is short of oxen, so you two are a good choice."

These words immediately drew laughter from everyone.

As they chatted and laughed, snow began to fall heavily, and everyone subconsciously looked south.

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "Sun Chengzong has been defeated and killed. It is tragic, lamentable, and pitiful."

Who is Sun Chengzong?

When Yue Fei arrived, he was not very familiar with the situation here, so Chen Futu held a grand banquet for the officials to welcome Yue Fei's army and told Yue Fei about Sun Chengzong.
